I saw a National Geographic today of of Amazon tribesmen. They (the men, women children) walk around nude. Why do you think they do not have a nature to be embarrassed from being nude as most in the western world do? Do they cohabit in public as well?

You can get used to anything. If they've grown up surrounded by nudity, they'll just become numb to it.

They were never shamed the way people are here. They have no need for clothes. It is more stuff to carry around when you move. Westerners generally have alot of issues with nudity. It comes from being taught that.

How close-minded can you be??
Really, it's hot all the time and they're used to being nude all the time. Don't you find it strange that you shake the hand of someone when you greet them? What are you trying to do when you shake someone's hand? Rip it off and keep it for yourself? They were raised that way, it's part of their culture, they don't see anything wrong with it just because your people do.

They haven't been contaminated with the world. But that video must of been an older one cause they are going out to the big cities and trading now.

They haven't been brainwashed to think that nudity is bad. Neither have other animals.
Yes, they do copulate in public.
